My early years of starling

Joined Starling a few years ago and haven’t looked back since. I love the in app features like spaces, that help me manage my money more efficiently. I do like all the security features, just giving me that peace of mind. I would love to get a credit card with starling that incorporates with my main account, so I can see what I’m spending my money on and make it easier to manage all within starling.

Financial Hardship to Financial Freedom with Starling!

5
After some financial hardship, Starling was one of the few banks that would take me. Starling has an amazing app user experience and features that took the anxiety out of spending & saving. Their marketing is informative but not pushy leaving me informed and hooked and not annoyed by spam! As a result I will always recommend and stay loyal to starling. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024
